Three rules of plumbing, 1 payday is Friday, 2 shit flows downhill, 3 don't bite your fingernails!

You got a older 46" deck for hydro drive JD. the "newer" 46" and the 48" had four gauge wheels, one at each corner. If you can adapt the rear roller from the Allis deck onto the JD deck it might be a good idea. Simplicity/Allis kind of use the roller to set the deck height, Deere just hangs the...

John Deere decks, 38" (old style three blade. new style two blade), 42" (newer deck), 44" (newer mulch/rear discharge), 46" (old deck), 48" (newer deck), 50" ( for 318/420, maybe a couple others), 54" (newer deck), 60" (both old and newer style), and lastly 72" (front mowers, sub compacts...

Misplaced your punch in spout? My uncle still has a couple cans of motor oil with graphite in it, when was the last time you seen that?

Looks like a flail mower

Probably seen it's reflection and thought it was a rival. Growing up, the house we lived in had two big picture widows across from each other, birds would try to fly through and kamikaze in the glass.

Need a tiller for the JD 110 you have Doug (hint hint). Just get on, start the tiller, and drive.
